The first piece you could see how it progressively zooms in more and more and the details that become enlarged. That piece relates to me because it's my shoe and I remember always drawing on that part of my shoe when I was younger. The second piece doesn't have a visually evident story but while making it I was watching a presidential debate and that is where my color inspiration came from. They were talking about BLM and LGBTQ+ which is something that I care about so I wanted to incorporate that. This shoe was important to me because I got it at a time when my style and personality was changing a lot so whenever I think of this shoe I remember like who I've become compared to who I used to be.

In the first piece I just used pencil and I used the view inder to zoom into part so that I could enlarge them. I sketched them then finalized them with darker lines. In the second piece I used pencil to sketch it out and then used watercolors for the shoe. Once I had the look I was going for then I went on to do the splatter with the watercolors. After that I went over things in pen and added a design at the toe so it didn't look so blank.

In the first piece I had originally done it wrong and zoomed in once and every shoe so it wasn't as large as it was supposed to be and that's why the final piece doesn't look the way that you had wanted. It evolved from not super zoomed in shoes to a gradient zoom and it was done correctly. I did have trouble getting the proportions correct though. My next steps could be going over it in pen instead of choosing a different shoe. In the second piece the process was hard making something so small become so large. I had to redo a lot of my lines because they didn't look right or the proportions were off. My next step might be redoing the whole thing and enlarging the correct image.
